LEMO is the acknowledged leader in the design and manufacture of precision custom connection solutions. LEMO’s high-quality push-pull connectors are found in a variety of challenging application environments including medical, industrial control, test and measurement, audio-video, and telecommunications.
LEMO’s medical connector range is called REDEL. The REDEL connectors are high-quality self-locking plastic circular connectors and their medical applications include: Sp02 connector, disposable connector, ECG connector, IP 68 connector and many others.
Medical-grade plastic connectors
The REDEL® 1P connector is a well-proven, medical-grade connector solution widely used in the medical device industry. The 1P series accommodates cable diameter up to 6.5mm and offers up to 14 electrical contacts. Top-quality lightweight and rugged materials have been chosen to optimise most applications; polysulfone (PSU), UL certified as auto extinguishable, can be sterilised by gas or by steam. The contacts are gold-plated over copper and nickel to ensure at least 1,000 mating / unmating cycles without significantly affecting the electrical characteristics.
For extensive sterilisation LEMO recommends using a PEI plastic material connector. Typical applications for these connectors include patient monitoring, ECG cables, pulse oximetry, dental equipment and imaging diagnostics.
Plastic push-pull connectors
With the new REDEL XP connector, LEMO is introducing a revolutionary patented solution of the plastic push-pull connector. The latching system is now embedded in the shell, offering an increased impact resistance and a very high contact density. The REDEL XP offers multiple contact and colour configurations and suits a wide array of medical or measurement applications, from catheters to surgical instruments.
The product is available in a large choice of colour codings: black, white, grey, green, blue, yellow, red. Contact configurations range from 4 to 22 contact and can be crimp or solder type. The outer shell is available in grey, black or white; it’s easy grip design makes it much easier for surgeons and medical staff to hold and use.
